1. RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR ALARMS

• Locate the first alarm in the immediate area of the bedrooms.

Try to monitor the exit path as the bedrooms are usually farthest

from the exit. If more than one sleeping area exists, locate addi-

tional alarms in each sleeping area.

• Locate additional alarms to monitor any stairway as stairways act

like chimneys for smoke and heat.

• Locate at least one alarm on every floor level.

• Locate an alarm in every bedroom.

• Locate an alarm in every room where electrical appliances are

operated (i.e. portable heaters or humidifiers).

• Locate an alarm in every room where someone sleeps with the

door closed. The closed door may prevent an alarm not located

in that room from waking the sleeper.

• Smoke, heat, and combustion products rise to the ceiling and

spread horizontally. Mounting the smoke alarm on the ceiling in

the center of the room places it closest to all points in the room.

Ceiling mounting is preferred in ordinary residential construc-

tion.

• For mobile home installation, select locations carefully to avoid

thermal barriers that may form at the ceiling. For more details,

see MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION below.

• When mounting an alarm on the ceiling, locate it at a minimum

of 4” (10cm) from the side wall (see figure 1).

• When mounting the alarm on the wall, use an inside wall with

the top edge of the alarm at a minimum of 4” (10cm) and a

maximum of 12” (30.5cm) below the ceiling. (see figure 1).

FIGURE 2 FIGURE 3

FIGURE 1

• Put smoke alarms at both ends of a bedroom hallway or large

room if the hallway or room is more than 30 ft (9.1 m) long.

• Install Smoke Alarms on sloped, peaked or cathedral ceilings at

or within 3ft (0.9m)of the highest point (measured horizontally).

NFPA 72 states: “Smoke alarms in rooms with ceiling slopes

greater than 1 ft in 8 ft (.3m in 2.4m) horizontally shall be locat-

ed on the high side of the room.” NFPA 72 states: “A row of

alarms shall be spaced and located within 3 ft (0.9m) of the

peak of the ceiling measured horizontally” (see figure 3).

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

Modern mobile homes have been designed and built to be energy

efficient. Install smoke alarms as recommended above (refer to

RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS and Figures 1 and 2).

In older mobile homes that are not well insulated compared to

present standards, extreme heat or cold can be transferred from

the outside to the inside through poorly insulated walls and roof.

This may create a thermal barrier which can prevent the smoke

from reaching an alarm mounted on the ceiling. In such units,

install the smoke alarm on an inside wall with the top edge of the

alarm at a minimum of 4” (10cm) and a maximum of 12”

(30.5cm) below the ceiling (see figure 1).

If you are not sure about the insulation in your mobile home, or if

you notice that the outer walls and ceiling are either hot or cold,

install the alarm on an inside wall. For minimum protection, install

at least one alarm close to the bedrooms. For additional protec-

tion, see SINGLE FLOOR PLAN in figure 2.

WARNING: TEST YOUR SMOKE ALARM OPERATION AFTER

RV OR MOBILE HOME VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN STORAGE,

BEFORE EACH TRIP AND AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK DURING

USE.

2. LOCATIONS TO AVOID

•In the garage. Products of combustion are present when you

start your automobile.

•Less than 4” (10cm) from the peak of an “A” frame type ceil-

ing.

•In an area where the temperature may fall below 40ºF or rise

above 100ºF, such as garages and unfinished attics.

• In dusty areas. Dust particles may cause nuisance alarm or fail-

ure to alarm.

• In very humid areas. Moisture or steam can cause nuisance

alarms.

• In insect-infested areas.

• Smoke alarms should not be installed within 3 ft (.9m) of the

following: The door to a kitchen, the door to a bathroom con-

taining a tub or shower, forced air supply ducts used for heating

or cooling, ceiling or whole house ventilating fans, or other high

air flow areas.

• Kitchens. Normal cooking may cause nuisance alarms. If a

kitchen alarm is desired, it should have an alarm silence feature

or be a photoelectric type.

• Near fluorescent lights. Electronic “noise” may cause nuisance

alarms.

• Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless

the combination (alarm and guard) has been evaluated and

found suitable for that purpose.

3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: THIS UNIT IS SEALED. THE COVER IS NOT REMOV-

ABLE!

1.Remove the mounting plate from the back of the alarm by hold-

ing the mounting plate and twisting the alarm in the direction

indicated by the “OFF” arrow on the alarm cover.

FIGURE 4

Alignment Marks

Install

Remove

When mounting

in a hallway, the

“A” line should

be parallel with

the hallway.

When wall

mounting, the

“A” line should

be horizontal.

2.To insure aesthetic alignment of the alarm with the hallway or

wall, the “A” line on the mounting plate should be parallel with

the hallway when ceiling mounting or horizontal when wall

mounting.

3.After selecting the proper smoke alarm location as described in

section 1, attach the mounting plate to the ceiling as shown in

figure 4. For wall mounting see figure 4. Place mounting plate

on the wall. Be sure the “A” line is horizontal. Use the screws

and anchors provided to secure the mounting plate (use 3/16”

drill bit for anchor holes).

4.Battery installation instructions are provided on the inside of the

battery door.

To ensure proper installation of the smoke alarm battery, follow

the instructions.

5.When installing the battery, press the battery reminder finger

down into the battery compartment and install the battery (see

figure 5).

CAUTION! IF THE BATTERY REMINDER FINGER IS NOT HELD

DOWN IN THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT BY THE BATTERY,

THE BATTERY DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE AND THE UNIT WILL

NOT ATTACH TO THE MOUNTING BRACKET.

6.Install the alarm on the trim ring and rotate the alarm in the direc-

tion of the "ON" arrow on the cover until the alarm ratchets into

place (this ratcheting function allows for aesthetic alignment).

TAMPER RESIST FEATURE: To make your smoke alarm tamper

resistant, a tamper resist feature has been provided. Activate the

tamper resist feature by breaking off the four posts in the square

holes in the trim ring (see figure 6). When the posts are broken

off, the tamper resist tab on the base is allowed to engage the

mounting bracket. Rotate the alarm onto the trim ring until you

hear the tamper resist tab snap into place, locking the alarm on

the trim ring. Using the tamper resist feature will help deter chil-

Reminder

Finger

dren and others from removing the alarm from trim ring. NOTE: To

remove the alarm when the tamper resist tab is engaged, press

down on the tamper resist tab, and rotate the alarm off of the

trim ring (see figure 6).

After installation, test your alarm by depressing and holding down

the test button for at least 5 seconds. This should sound the alarm.

4. OPERATION AND TESTING

OPERATION: The smoke alarm is operating once a fresh battery is

installed and testing is complete. When products of combustion

are sensed, the unit sounds a loud 85db pulsating alarm until the

air is cleared.

HUSH CONTROL: The “HUSH” feature has the capability of tem-

porarily desensitizing the alarm circuit for approximately 8 minutes.

This feature is to be used only when a known alarm condition,

such as smoke from cooking activates the alarm. The smoke alarm

is desensitized by pushing the “HUSH” button on the smoke alarm

cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will silence immedi-

ately and the red LED will flash every 2 seconds for approximately

8 minutes. This indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensi-

tized condition. The smoke alarm will automatically reset after

approximately 8 minutes, and sound the alarm if smoke is still

present. The “HUSH” feature can be used repeatedly until the air

has been cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the

test/reset button on the alarm will end the hush period.

FIGURE 6

Posts

NOTE: DENSE SMOKE WILL OVERRIDE THE HUSH CONTROL

FEATURE AND SOUND A CONTINUOUS ALARM.

CAUTION: BEFORE USING THE ALARM HUSH FEATURE, IDEN-

TIFY THE SOURCE OF THE SMOKE AND BE CERTAIN A SAFE

CONDITION EXISTS.

LED INDICATOR: This smoke alarm is equipped with a red LED indi-

cator. The red LED is located under the test button and has several

modes of operation.

Standby Condition: The red LED will flash every 30-40

seconds to indicate that the smoke

alarm is operating properly.

Alarm Condition: When the alarm senses products of

combustion and goes into alarm, the

red LED will flash rapidly (once every

two seconds). The rapid flashing LED

and temporal alarm will continue until

the air is cleared.

Hush Condition: The red LED will flash every 2 seconds as

long as the alarm is in Hush mode.

Low Battery Condition: The red LED flash will be accompanied

by an audible chirp. Replace the battery

when this condition occurs.

SMOKE SENSING CHAMBER OPERATION: This alarm will “chirp” if

any of the components in the smoke sensing chamber fail. This

chirp will occur between the flashes of the red LED indicator light.

(If the chirp occurs at the same time as the red LED flash, see sec-

tion 6 for low battery information).

TESTING: Test by pushing the test button on the cover and hold it

down for a minimum of 5 seconds. This will sound the alarm if the

electronic circuitry and horn and battery are working. If no alarm

sounds, the unit has defective batteries or other failure. DO NOT

use an open flame to test your alarm, you could damage the

alarm or ignite combustible materials and start a structure fire.

Alarm Memory: This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm

memory feature which produces a rapid

chirping sound when the test button is pushed.

This sound indicates that the alarm has been

activated since it was last tested. Releasing the

test button clears the memory. If the alarm

memory sound is heard, release the test button

and press the test button again to enter the

normal test mode.

TEST THE ALARM WEEKLY TO ENSURE PROPER OPERATION. Erratic

or low sound coming from your alarm may indicate a defective

alarm, and it should be returned for service (see section 12).

NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED.

5. NUISANCE ALARMS

Smoke alarms are designed to minimize nuisance alarms.

Cigarette smoke will not normally set off the alarm, unless the

smoke is blown directly into the alarm. Combustion particles from

cooking may set off the alarm if the alarm is located close to the

cooking area. Large quantities of combustible particles are gener-

ated from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood

which vents to the outside (non-recirculating type) will also help

remove these combustible products from the kitchen.

If the alarm does sound, check for fires first. If a fire is discovered,

get out and call the fire department. If no fire is present, check to

see if one of the reasons listed in section 2 may have caused the

alarm.

The model PI 9000 has a “HUSH” control that is extremely useful

in a kitchen area or other areas prone to nuisance alarms. For

more information refer to section 4, OPERATION AND TESTING.

6. MAINTENANCE

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

If tamper resist feature has been used, refer to TAMPER RESIST

FEATURE in section 3 for removal instructions.

To replace the battery, remove the alarm from the mounting plate

by rotating the alarm in the direction of the “OFF” arrow on the

cover (see section 3, figure 4).

The Model PI9000 Smoke Alarm is powered by a 9V alkaline bat-

tery (lithium batteries may also be used). A fresh battery should

last for one year under normal operating conditions. This alarm

has a low battery monitor circuit which will cause the alarm to

“chirp” approximately every 30 - 40 seconds for a minimum of

seven (7) days when the battery gets low. Replace the battery

when this condition occurs.

USE ONLY THE FOLLOWING 9 VOLT BATTERIES FOR SMOKE

ALARM REPLACEMENT.

Alkaline Type: EVEREADY 522; DURACELL MN1604,

MX1604, GOLD PEAK 1604A PANASONIC

6AM6, 6AM-6, 6AM-6PI, 6AM6X, and

6LR61(GA)

Lithium Type: ULTRALIFE U9VL-J

NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED.

WARNING!! USE ONLY THE BATTERIES SPECIFIED. USE OF

DIFFERENT BATTERIES MAY HAVE A DETRIMENTAL EFFECT

ON THE SMOKE ALARM.

CLEANING YOUR ALARM

YOUR ALARM SHOULD BE CLEANED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR

To clean your alarm, remove it from the mounting bracket as out-

lined in the beginning of this section. You can clean the interior

of your alarm (sensing chamber) by using compressed air or a vac-

uum cleaner hose and blowing or vacuuming through the open-

ings around the perimeter of the alarm. The outside of the alarm

can be wiped with a damp cloth. After cleaning, reinstall your

alarm and test your alarm by using the test button. If cleaning

does not restore the alarm to normal operation the alarm should

be replaced.

7. LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE ALARMS

WARNING: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND THOROUGHLY

• NFPA 72 states: Life safety from fire in residential occupancies is

based primarily on early notification to occupants of the need to

escape, followed by the appropriate egress actions by those

occupants. Fire warning systems for dwelling units are capable

of protecting about half of the occupants in potentially fatal

fires. Victims are often intimate with the fire, too old or young,

or physically or mentally impaired such that they cannot escape

even when warned early enough that escape should be possible.

For these people, other strategies such as protection-in-place or

assisted escape or rescue are necessary.

• Smoke alarms are devices that can provide early warning of pos-

sible fires at a reasonable cost; however, alarms have sensing lim-

itations. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire parti-
